I was thinkin that one day this spring that a bunch of the guys from the forum could get together, and just chill out, do the truck thing. Exchange information and whatnot. If anyone is interested, leave a post or email me at mperlove@bor1ng.net
You can also contact me on AIM with the screen name: format th1s I'm always on, and if i'm away, just leave a message!

Mar 25 2003, 12:53pm
we could do another hooters thing for sure. Hopefully this time it will be warmer then 13 degrees! A nice sunny day, we can hang out and BS a little longer then last time. And we will need to get some more pix this time. Let me know

We may be able to find something between the D and Grand Rapids. That why it would only be an hour (isH) drive for everyone....even though most of us would be driving from the east side. but i wouldnt want brad to sit home all alone again :)

BullitRAnger
Mar 30 2003, 12:04pm
saturday sounds good, or sunday for that matter....doesnt really matter to me. I think we did the last one at 1pm so we could probably do that again, its a good time to go cuz its not too crowded. We should call ahead once we get the final number of people and they will set up some tables.

Saturday is probably the best day, that way most of us can stay out a bit later, cause some (at least I) have school on monday. lets have it saturday, april 12th, 3:00pm at the hooters in lansing

I'll send everyone a PM to make sure they're coming. So, check your messages later today.

Oh! I forgot to mention this: if any of your friends have mini-trucks, or even monster trucks, bring em along. Or, just bring a friend! Doesnt matter if they're Ford or not, I'd just like to see a large turnout

hey sweet--hopefully i can make it. i'm from ypsi (right by ann arbor) and i'd love to come. the thing is--i work at red lobster, so saturday might be hard for me to get off....

i'll request for the day off and hopefulyl i'll see everyone there...(I'd also be bringing a few friends of mine...also from the forums, 02SilvRanger and BlueBoi03)


mapquest says: Total Distance: 71.29 miles Total Estimated Time: 1 hour, 16 minutes

How long do you think everyone will be hanging out? I have a class from 9-1 on saturday. in brownstown(downriver) and I'd like to mee up up if you guys are still hanging out. It will probably take me an hour to get there at least. but maybe I could get someones cell number and find out where everyone is at or something. let me know I'd like to be there if possible.

BullitRAnger
Apr 04 2003, 08:26am
were meeting at 3 so if you leave right at 1 and haul balls all the way you will probably get there right around 3.

TremorXLT
Apr 04 2003, 12:56pm
So everyone is just meeting at hooters, then what? just whatever happens? I'm just tryin to figure out how long we'll be out there just so I have an idea. I'm definetley gonna try to come as long as I have the day off but I'll let you guys know for sure soon.

Well I am changing my responce from going for sure to maybe....
My girlfriend has been in mexico since wednesday and is getting back friday the 11th at about 11:00 PM and she really wants to come and I sure as hell want to see her. so depending on how she's doing I may or may not go, but they say 60's and sunny so if I go I will bring the Splash :)

blaaa, I'd go, but i didn't find this out till today, can't get the day off :( Anyone that can't meet saturday, want to meet next friday? Just a thought.... :P

MXRacerCam
Apr 10 2003, 07:30pm
i called hooters today to see if we could hold a table or three, but they won't take a reservation. they said to call about 1/2 hr. before we get there, and they will hold one for us...

so i guess i'll give them a call before i roll out there (since most of you will be on the road by then...)

I am very sorry but I can't make it today, I busted my nuts to get things done to the splash, then on my way, the damn tranny started slipping and I didn't trust it all the way there and back, I messed around with it but still nothing plus the damn ABS and Speedo aint working, by the time I got there you guys would be leaving. I am really sorry and WILL make it to the next one

I am extreamly pissed and dissapointed, I should have just took my 98 :cussing:

Apr 12 2003, 05:20pm
Yea, we noticed that you "forgot" to come ;)

All in all, things turned out well and I'm glad. Its quite obvious that dave has the coolest truck, and I drive the fastest (I left last and passed everyone :) :)) Too bad we got shafted in the waitress department. Oh well, hope to see you guys again sometime. I'll post pics once I get them up.

Apr 12 2003, 09:00pm
Sorry i didnt make it either guys. I just got the thing on the road today and didnt really think i would drive 300 miles on the first trip out. I really thought i would have had it done in time but that wasnt the case. ITs cool, summer aint even here yet and we can have a few more before its said and done. I'll make the next one 2.
